Micropump applications pulp & paper bleaching
In the paper manufacturing process, wood pulp leaving the digester wash unit often must be bleached to attain the desired level of paper whiteness. Bleach plants whiten pulp through three to five stages of bleaching and water washing. Typically, two pairs of aqueous chlorine dioxide and caustic extraction towers are followed by pulp washing stages.
Micropump pumps are used in these applications to deliver the appropriate bleaching agent and to maintain the proper chemical balance in the bleaching tower.
